add-provider

To add a new AI provider to the AICO CLI, you scaffold the provider package and wire it into the CLI. This generates the package structure, model descriptors, and integration boilerplate for runtime switching.

Scaffolding an AI provider package involves creating a main provider file and model descriptors. It implements the required provider interface with Endpoint, ProviderName, and factory methods to enable model discovery and API key handling.

Yes, you can integrate an OpenAI-compatible service like 'together' into your CLI. The scaffolding process generates the necessary provider package structure and integration boilerplate to support custom SDKs.

The best way to register a custom model SDK for CLI discovery is by updating the CLI model discovery and flag handling. This wires the new provider into the system, enabling detection and API key handling across development and deployment.

You do not need to manually update CLI commands when adding a provider. The process automatically updates CLI model discovery and flag handling to support the new provider across development, testing, and deployment environments.

Wiring model descriptors requires implementing the specific provider interface with Endpoint, ProviderName, and factory methods. Limitations include ensuring the new package correctly integrates with existing CLI flag handling and API key management protocols.
